  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

te 511 power commander

I just had my power commander dyno tuned on my te 511 and what a difference it makes. Improvement on throttle responce at every RPM. I intsalled the power command V with auto tune, and a FMF power core 4 exhaust. The bike now idles great, and no more flame out. However I was told that the secondary buttery fly closes at around 70 MPH and I need to get a "flash" to cure this problem. I am not sure on what to do, or how to go about doing this. I highly recommend the power commander for your husky.
 
I am not sure on the horse power. I didn't actually get a print out. I went to Mickey Cohen in Placentia for the tune. He was telling me there is a governor that closes the secondary butter fly when the speeds hit around 70 mph or so. I notice my 511 would only hit 74 wide open before the pcv. I haven't opened it up all the way yet to see what the top speed is now. Mickey was talking about a flash to the ecu of the bike to open the valves during high speeds. I have never heard of such a thing myself, but again I am just an average at best machanic.
 
Definitely sounds interesting to me. First off, the ecu is replaced by the pcv. Also, on my 511, all I have is race map II and a modified stock can exhaust and stock gearing. I am able to take my bike to 97mph.
How much did Mickey charge for the dyno run?
 
I thought the same thing in that the pcv would replace the ecu, and found it odd what he was telling me. It cost me $250 for the dyno tune, and he said he would re-tune it after I had it flashed. To me something is not right in what I am being told, and I trust you over him. next weekend I will take it out and see what I can get out of it for a top speed. I hope I didn't just throw away 250 bucks.
 
Why would 70 mph close the valve ? The secondary butterfly acts to smooth the power not as a speed governor . I know that's bull.
 
Also let me know if you find somone who will flash the ecu, I checked into that once and I couldn't find anyone who will do it on 449/511.
 
Yeah, thats what I was thinking too. These bikes are not governored for speed control like a sport bike is. I haven't found anything about the flash on the ecuas of now, but i will post if I do.
